Well, baseball players are EXTREMELY superstitious. Every time one of his brothers has gone to the State baseball tournament, Nate has talked about the 'Christiansen Curse' ... which basically is a curse to never win State ... starting back with his Uncle Bruce (we won't say what year ... you can thank us later Bruce! :) ) Well ... I'm HAPPY to report that the curse has been broken!! That's right! Casey and the Minico Spartans won the 2009 4A State Baseball Championship this year! It didn't even seem like a challenge ... the final score was a dominating 11-1, five-inning victory. Casey struck the final batter out and Nate said he didn't think the season could end in a better fashion! The Idaho Statesman put it well:
4A: MINICO TOPPLES MOSCOW
The Spartans continued their dominance with an 11-1 victory over the Bears in the state championship game Saturday at Bishop Kelly High. Minico (22-11) won its three tournament games by a combined score of 28-3.
Congratulations on an awesome season Casey!
